Hi All
This is my first post here so sorry if I stuff something up. Also fairly new to LOTR as a hobby. Been collecting and painting minis for about a year. I enjoy the modelling and painting most – although not very good at it!
Anyway, my aim is to create battle-scene dioramas loosely based on the film/book. I am not trying to recreate scenes exactly as they appear in the movie – I enjoy adding my own touches to things and using my own creativity.
My first project is a variation on the battle in Balin’s tomb.
I’ve added a pic below – hopefully – if I have sorted this photobucket thing. I’ll add more later.
I realise the terrain is almost done, but I think I have some work to do (eg add some cobwebs to the walls, bit more painting, maybe change the shields on the walls to dwarf shields etc. )
I appreciate any comments on how to improve things.
Once the terrain is finished I am going to add all the characters – the fellowship and a host of goblins. I have painted most of these and will add some pics hopefully.
Anyway, enough writing, here’s the first pic.
Gandalf could do with some more work, but otherwise very nice!
